If you’re like me, you’ve been watching video content on YouTube for years. But have you ever really dug into the video player to learn about all the many controls and features embedded in this powerful app? Here’s a quick primer…
When I’m watching one of my own videos on my YouTube channel and click on the “Download” button, it pops up a prompt for me to upgrade to YouTube Premium. Do I have to upgrade my YouTube account to be able to download my own darn videos??
I watch a lot of sewing videos on YouTube and have closed captions enabled on my PC to help me understand what they’re saying. The captions, however, are too small for me to read. Is there a way to enlarge the subtitle font or typeface size?
I want to download a couple of YouTube videos to my computer so I can watch them offline, but don’t see any sort of “save as” feature. Is there a safe, free way to accomplish this without installing some questionable third-party software?
I need to get a transcript of a ten-minute video interview and don’t want to spend any money to do so. Is there any way I can utilize YouTube’s transcript feature to get a transcript of my video (without having the video available to everyone on the site)?
I’ve been posting some fairly controversial videos on my YouTube channel and want to hide likes/dislikes and my overall channel subscriber count. Is that even possible on YouTube?
I want to be able to share videos I like on YouTube with my parents. Some of them are my own content that I’ve uploaded, but most are from other people. What’s the best way to get short links for my favorite YouTube videos?
I never realized this was a thing, but a friend told me that there are people who steal your YouTube videos and re-upload them as their own? Apparently it’s for affiliate links, etc? How can I find if anyone’s done this with mine and remove their videos?
